Well my +slug address is used for a couple of slug related lists which I like to keep separate. I could check to see if the list address was in the To or CC fields, but that would triple the size of the procmail filter (which already has 150 entries) and will become a maintenance issue (ie three procmail entries per mailing list). > > The thing that appals me most, is that if reply-to munging was used > > this wouldn't be a constant problem. > > You set the reply-to and still got a direct mail. Yes, but if reply-to munging was in place, noone would be tempted to reply-to-all because the default behaviour would be correct. > > Instead, there would be the > > ocassional problem of a mail sent to the list when it was meant as > > a private response.
